The Stockholder shall promptly (and in any event within two Business Days) notify, in writing, the Company of the receipt by the Stockholder in such capacity of any inquiry, proposal, offer or request for information received after the date hereof that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to result in or lead to, any Acquisition Proposal with respect to Parent, which notice shall include the identity of the Person or group of Persons making, such inquiry, proposal, offer or request for information and, with respect to any such proposal or offer, a summary of the material terms of, and an unredacted copy of any proposed definitive agreement, proposal or offer made in writing or, if not in writing, a written description of the material terms and conditions of such proposal or offer (and shall include any other material documents evidencing or specifying the terms of such proposal or offer or, to the extent applicable, inquiry). To the extent the Stockholder is prohibited by a non-disclosure or confidentiality agreement entered into prior to the date hereof from providing the information set forth in the preceding sentence, the Stockholder shall not be required to provide the

Company with the identity of the Person(s) from which such expression of interest, inquiry or proposal was received. The Stockholder shall not enter into any confidentiality agreement with any Person after the date of this Agreement that prohibits it from complying with the foregoing obligations.

(b) Transfers. Each Stockholder hereby agrees not to, directly or indirectly, Transfer or enter into any Contract or option with respect to the Transfer of any of the Stockholder’s Covered Shares, or take any action that would make any representation or warranty of the Stockholder contained herein untrue or incorrect in any material respect or have the effect of preventing or disabling the Stockholder from performing its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit a Transfer to an Affiliate of the Stockholder (a “Permitted Transfer”) or a Transfer consented to by Parent and the Company; provided, further, that any Permitted Transfer shall be permitted only if, as a precondition to such Transfer, the transferee agrees in a writing, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Parent and the Company, to assume all of the obligations of the Stockholder under, and be bound by all of the terms of, this Agreement; provided, further, that any Transfer permitted under this Section 7(b) shall not relieve the Stockholder of its obligations under this Agreement.

during the Lock-Up Period; provided further, that nothing herein shall prohibit the Stockholder from (1) pledging any Covered Shares in connection with the Stockholder’s entry into a credit facility or any other bona fide borrowing or similar lending arrangement, which shall include margin loans (provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, any pledgee who receives such Covered Shares following the exercise of remedies shall not be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 7(c)), (2) transferring any Covered Shares as a distribution or transfer to general partners, limited partners, members or stockholders of the Stockholder, (3) transferring any Covered Shares to any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, investment fund or other entity which controls or manages or is controlled or managed by the Stockholder, or to any Affiliate under common control or management with the Stockholder, (4) transferring any Covered Shares in connection with the completion of a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of Parent’s securityholders having the right to exchange their shares of Parent Common Stock for cash, securities or other property, (5) (x) transfers of Covered Shares pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender offer for shares of the Parent’s capital stock made to all holders of Parent’s securities or pursuant to a merger, consolidation or other similar transaction approved by the Parent Board the result of which is that any person (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), or group of persons, other than Parent, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) of more than 50% of the total voting power of the voting stock of Parent and (y) entry into any lock-up, voting or similar agreement pursuant to which the Stockholder may agree to transfer, sell, tender or otherwise dispose of shares of Parent Common Stock or such other securities in connection with a transaction described in the immediately foregoing clause (x) above (provided that, in the event that such change of control transaction is not completed, any Covered Shares shall remain subject to the restrictions contained this Section 7(c)), or (6) by operation of law or pursuant to a final order of a court or regulatory agency; provided further, that, in the case of the foregoing clauses (1) through (3), (I) each such transferee agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth in this Section 7(c), (II) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value and (III) no public filing or public disclosure shall be required or voluntarily made during the Lock-up Period in connection with any such transfer (other than required filings under Sections 13(d) or 13(g) or Section 16 of the Exchange Act). Each Stockholder agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with Xxxxxx’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of Covered Shares except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent all or any portion of Section 5.05 of the New RRA is waived by Parent with respect to any Major Holder (which, prior to the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement under the New RRA, may only occur following the written request or consent of a Bain Entity), then the corresponding provisions of this Section 7(c) shall automatically be deemed to be waived with respect to each Stockholder to the same extent as waived with respect to such Major Holder.

(d) Irrevocable Proxy. In order to secure the obligations set forth herein, each Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints the Company, or any nominee thereof, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, as its true and lawful proxy and attorney-in-fact, only in the event that such Stockholder does not comply with its obligations in Section 1, to vote or execute written consents with respect to the Stockholder’s Covered Shares in accordance with Section 1 and with respect to any proposed postponements or

adjournments of any meeting of the stockholders of Parent at which any of the matters described in Section 1 are to be considered, including the Special Meeting. Each Stockholder hereby affirms that this proxy is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, except upon termination of this Agreement, and the Stockholder will take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy and hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by such Stockholder with respect to any of its Covered Shares that is materially inconsistent with the Stockholder’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement. This proxy shall be revoked automatically upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 3, and the Company may terminate this proxy at any time at its sole election by written notice provided to such Stockholder.

(e) No Short Sales. Each Stockholder agrees that, from the date of this Agreement to and including the date of the termination of this Agreement, none of the Stockholder nor any person or entity acting on behalf of the Stockholder or pursuant to any understanding with the Stockholder will engage in any Short Sales with respect to securities of Parent. For the purposes hereof, “Short Sales” shall mean all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, and all short positions effected through any direct or indirect stock pledges (other than pledges in the ordinary course of business as part of prime brokerage arrangements), forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), or sales or other short transactions through non-U.S. broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.

(f) Each Stockholder hereby authorizes the Company to maintain a copy of this Agreement at either the executive office or the registered office of the Company.

8. Priority of Certain Registration Rights. Upon the effectiveness of the Registration Rights Agreement (in the form attached to the Merger Agreement and without giving effect to any amendments thereto after such effectiveness, the “New RRA”) to be entered into by certain existing stockholders (the “New RRA Holders”) of the Company in connection with the Transactions, the Stockholder agrees that, notwithstanding any preexisting priority rights it may have pursuant to the terms of any existing agreement or arrangement with Parent (including, for avoidance of doubt, the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of May 10, 2018, by and among Parent and the other parties thereto (the “Existing RRA”)), in the event of any proposed underwritten offering of Parent securities initiated by a New RRA Holder as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) of the New RRA or in which a New RRA Holder has the right to include any of its securities of Parent as contemplated by Section 2.03(c) of the New RRA, the allocation of securities of Parent to be included in such underwritten offering shall, as between the Stockholder and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the New RRA Holders, on the other hand, be made on a proportional basis. For avoidance of doubt, the “proportional basis” referred to in the preceding sentence with respect to the allocation provisions of Section 2.03(b) and/or 2.03(c) of the New RRA shall be interpreted as if the Stockholder and its Affiliates are “selling Other RRA Holders” as defined in, and contemplated by, the New RRA, and any “Registrable Securities” (as defined in the Existing RRA) of the Stockholder and its Affiliates shall be treated, solely for the purposes of interpreting such provisions, as “registrable shares of Common Stock” as contemplated by the New RRA.

9. HSR Act. Each Stockholder will use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with the Company and Parent with respect to any notification form required pursuant to the HSR Act in connection with the Transactions, including with respect to providing information requested by any Governmental Authority with respect thereto. The parties hereto agree that all filing fees associated with filings made with Governmental Authorities pursuant to this Section 9 shall be treated as Transaction Expenses under the Merger Agreement, subject to applicable limitations set forth in the Merger Agreement.

10. Termination of Stockholders’ Agreement. Each Stockholder hereby agrees to execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary to cause: (a) the Stockholders’ Agreement, dated May 10, 2018, as amended and currently in effect, among Parent and each of the other parties set forth on the signature pages thereto (the “Stockholders’ Agreement”) to be terminated (the “Stockholders’ Agreement Termination”) without any further force and effect effective no later than immediately prior to the First Effective Time; and (b) the then-sitting Riverstone Director (as defined in the Stockholders’ Agreement) to resign or be removed from the Parent Board no later than immediately prior to the First Effective Time, which in each case the Stockholder may cause to be contingent upon the occurrence of the First Effective Time, and the Stockholder hereby agrees to the waiver of any rights of first refusal, preemptive rights, rights of co-sale, and registration rights with respect to the Transactions to the extent any such rights heretofore existed pursuant to the Stockholders’ Agreement.

11. Further Assurances; Waiver of Appraisal Rights. From time to time, at Parent’s or the Company’s request and without further consideration, each Stockholder shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or reasonably requested to effect the actions and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Merger Agreement. Each Stockholder further agrees, without limiting remedies for fraud, not to commence or participate in, and to take all actions reasonably necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any action or claim, derivative or otherwise, against Parent, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, successors and assigns relating to the negotiation, execution or delivery of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement (including alleging a breach of any duty of the Company Board or Parent Board in connection with the Merger Agreement, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or the Transactions) or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the Transactions. Each Stockholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to exercise, assert or perfect (or attempt to exercise, assert or perfect), any rights of appraisal or rights to dissent in connection with the First Merger or the other Transactions that the Stockholder may at any time have under Applicable Law by virtue of ownership of the Covered Shares.

12. Disclosure. Each Stockholder hereby authorizes the Company and Parent to publish and disclose in any announcement or disclosure required by the SEC the Stockholder’s identity and ownership of the Covered Shares and the nature of the Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement; provided, that prior to any such publication or disclosure the Company and Parent have provided the Stockholder with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon such announcement or disclosure, which comments the Company and Parent will consider in good faith.

13. Changes in Capital Stock. In the event of a stock split, stock dividend or distribution, or any change in Parent’s capital stock by reason of any split-up, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, exchange of shares or the like, the terms “Owned Shares,” and “Covered Shares” shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares as well as all such stock dividends and distributions and any securities into which or for which any or all of such shares may be converted, changed or exchanged or which are received in such transaction.
